There's regular rain, and then there's New Jersey rain. It's the kind where your GPS reroutes you three times because every low-lying road in Morris County has decided to become a temporary lake.
For those conditions, you need a vehicle that doesn't just tolerate wet roads but actually thrives on them. That's exactly why Nielsen Editorial featured the Jeep Grand Cherokee in its guide to the Top Cars and SUVs for Rainy Road Conditions in NJ.
The Grand Cherokee's advanced 4WD systems are built for situations where traction really matters. Whether it's heavy rain pooling on the Turnpike, slick backroads in North Jersey, or uneven pavement after days of storms, the system actively manages power to keep the vehicle stable and planted. Add in Jeep's Selec-Terrain® traction management system, and you can tailor performance to match the conditions - something that becomes incredibly useful when you're just trying to make it home from work when the skies open up mid-drive.
Another advantage is the Grand Cherokee's higher ground clearance, which helps when you're dealing with deeper puddles or water buildup in flood-prone areas. It's the kind of feature you might not think about … until you need it. And when you pair that capability with a solid, composed ride, the result is an SUV that feels controlled and confident (even when the road underneath you isn't).
The Grand Cherokee's cabin is another source of assurance. It's quiet, comfortable, and well-designed for long drives, whether you're commuting through Morris County or heading out in less-than-ideal conditions. You're getting a vehicle that makes stressful drives feel more manageable.
